Default Battery Connectors M38A1

Gentlemen: looking for a pair of military battery post connectors for an M38A1 Jeep. They are the TOP TWO in the photograph. The lower 2 may work if they clear the acid caps. Any help would be much appreciated. Robert

Default A photo WOULD be helpful!!!!!

Getting old is a bugger!!!! R. Trying to put photos on this web site is worse. For some unexplained reason, I can't download the photo. If you know what I'm talking about, you can PM me or email me directly at robert.morr84@gmail.com. Many thanks again and the 84 is NOT my age! Robert

For computer illiterate Robert, I am posting his photo.

As I have always said: If you are asking me for help on a computer, you really do need help.

And for free, here is my battery post advice: As long as they are not cracked or eaten all the way through, sandblast them. On the milspec ones, remove the bolts first and replace them with new ones after sandblasting.

Saves lots of $$. I do this at work, and have saved the government hundreds.

Default 50% is better than nothing.....

Well .....due to some serious scrounging, 50% of the problem is solved. Our old friend John has some NEGATIVE battery connectors on MIDWESTMILITARY.COM. I have not contacted him about the positive units, but will do so and post the results here. As I've always said...."half is better than nothing". Robert
